Abstract excerpt
We describe an unusual repetitive DNA region located in the 3' end of the light (L)-strand in the mitochondrial control region of two elephant seal species. The array of tandem repeats shows both VNTR (variable-number tandem repeat) and sequence variation and is absent from 12 compared mammalian...
